11. Repeat the above steps ONLY if the other transmitters are set to a DIFFERENT address setting than 

the transmitter you just programmed. We recommend keeping all of your transmitters set to the same 
address to reduce interference from other Silent Call systems that may be in your area.

All Erase:

Provisions are made to erase all programmed transmitter addresses. The only time you would need to 
use the ALL ERASE feature is if you are receiving signals from another Silent Call System in your area. 
You would then do the ALL ERASE feature on your receiver and then re-program your transmitters to a 
different address.

The ALL ERASE function is performed as follows:

1.  Turn off the Sidekick II Signature Series Receiver by turning the AC power switch to the off posi-

tion. Turn back-up battery to off position (if you have the backup battery installed). An indication of 
power being off would be that the amber light on the strobe lens is off.

2.  Press and hold the MINUTES pushbutton DO NOT RELEASE THE BUTTON

3.  Turn the power back on while holding the MINUTES pushbutton in.

4.  Once power is on, release the MINUTES pushbutton.

The all erase function is complete and the unit will now need to be re-programmed with its transmitters. 
The Supervisor MODE is also disabled. Please Remember to program the smoke detectors and fire trans-
mitters before programming any other transmitters.

Supervision Mode for Smoke and Fire Transmitters:

The Sidekick II Signature Series is capable of monitoring up to three Silent Call Smoke Detectors and/or 
Fire transmitters for low battery, out of range, interference from outside sources, and missing or failure of 
the transmitter to communicate with the receiver. The MODE is referred to as the SUPERVISOR MODE.

All 418 MHz Signature Series Silent Call Fire and Smoke Detector transmitters send out a special alarm 
signal at two minute intervals. The receiver will continue to operate in its normal mode provided the unit 
is receiving the supervisory alarm signals from the Smoke or Fire transmitter. The receiver will alert the 
user if a Smoke Detector or Fire transmitter signal has not been received within a period of 10 minutes. 
When this happens, the LCD will flash the FIRE ICON and the CHK ICON for 10 seconds every 30 
seconds. Also, the RED LED that corresponds to the transmitter that is having the problem will light up 
and that is how you will know which unit is having a problem.

The Sidekick II Signature Series Receiver automatically enters the supervisor mode once it has been pro-
grammed for a smoke detector or fire alarm transmitter.
